Pantaneiro

Also known as Poconeano, the Pantaneiro is home in Mato Grosso, Brazil.  Most are gray in color, with some bay or black or brown.  There are temporary flood conditions often found within the Pantanal region that the Pantaneiro breed has adapted well to.  Pantaneiro horses are resistant to equine Infectious Anemia which makes them the selected horse for swampy areas in their homeland.
